US ‘will not block’ Andrew and Tristan Tate’s extradition to the UK

  • “Manosphere" influencers Andrew and Tristan Tate have been arrested in Miami and face extradition to the UK on charges of rape and sex trafficking.
  • US Secretary of State Marco Rubio stated that neither he nor Donald Trump would block their extradition, confirming the US intends to honour its treaty with the UK.
  • Court documents unsealed on Monday detail allegations from three UK complainants, including rape, assault, trafficking, and offences related to indecent images, spanning from 2010 to 2017.
  • The brothers are already facing charges in the UK for rape, bodily harm, human trafficking, and controlling prostitution for gain involving three other alleged victims between 2012 and 2015.
  • A US district judge will determine if they meet the conditions for extradition, with a further hearing scheduled for 27 July; the process could take years if appealed.
